Title: Will you survive to the 7 nDoom Hells?
Post by: critor on December 20, 2011, 04:44:30 pm

News crossposted from TI-Planet: http://tiplanet.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8583



Up to now, nDoom let you play Doom Shareware version which included the 1st episode with 9 maps including a hidden map.

Doom, episode 1, end of the last map

So let's now have a look at the following image:

The backround is not the same. This image doesn't belong to the previous game...

Yes indeed! This image comes from the end of Doom II - Hell on Earth level 1... Yes, nDoom lets you now launch the different official Doom games. You just have to get the matching WAD file.

Are supported 6 different Doom games, including nothing less that 7 Hells for your greatest pleasure! :D
- Doom Shareware, which includes episode 1
- Doom Registered, which adds episodes 2 and 3
- Ultimate Doom, which adds a 4th episode
- Doom II: Hell on Earth
- Final Doom: TNT Evilution
- Final Doom: The Plutonia Experiment

Each game is now using a separate savestate file, which lets you save your progress at each game, and resume it whenever you want,even after playing a different Doom game! :)

Hours of fun are coming to your TI-Nspire CX!

WOuld it be possible to make(if it doesn't exist yet) a Wolfgang wad file that would make it possible to actually play Wolfgang on it.
I personally don't really like Wolfgang, but I just ask this because I'm curious. :)

If wolfgang is just a doom wad file, he can make it work :)

Custom WADS would definitively be great. :D

Is sound supported via the serial port? That might be cool.

No sound for now.

It's not planned for the next release.

Considering a bunch of people don't know much about electronics and wires and may not be willing to mess with the serial port of the calculator, maybe sound wouldn't get much of an audience really so I am unsure if it would be worth the effort to add support for it.

Well, remember Levak's Nyan Cat game? I think nobody really bothered trying to plug a speaker in their Nspire, but that would still be fun for the people who are well versed into electronics and have such speakers lying around. IIRC you just have to plug 2 wires somewhere. I think I could show you next time I'll go to your place.

Ah maybe. Too bad you weren't home since from last thursday until next thursday I only had one work day (yesterday). D:

But yeah the thing is not everyone lives close to a store selling them and stuff like that. Otherwise there could have been usb speakers, but apparently USB stuff is pretty hard to implement and I'm unsure if USB speakers are easy to find.

Hm, pretty sure shops like RadioShack would sell those stuff.
